LOS ANGELES (AP) — Journalist Don Lemon was released from custody Friday after he was arrested and hit with federal civil rights charges over his coverage of an anti-immigration enforcement protest that disrupted a service at a Minnesota church.
Lemon was arrested overnight in Los Angeles, while another independent journalist and two protest participants were arrested in Minnesota. He struck a confident, defiant tone while speaking to reporters after a court appearance in California, declaring: “I will not be silenced.”
“I have spent my entire career covering the news. I will not stop now,” Lemon said. “In fact there is no more important time than right now, this very moment, for a free and independent media that shines a light on the truth and holds those in power accountable.”
The arrests brought sharp criticism from news media advocates and civil rights activists including the Rev. Al Sharpton, who said the administration of President Donald Trump is taking a “sledgehammer” to “the knees of the First Amendment.”

A grand jury in Minnesota indicted Lemon and others on charges of conspiracy and interfering with the First Amendment rights of worshippers during the Jan. 18 protest at the Cities Church in St. Paul, where a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement official is a pastor.

In court in Los Angeles, Assistant U.S. Attorney Alexander Robbins argued for a $100,000 bond, telling a judge that Lemon “knowingly joined a mob that stormed into a church.” He was released, however, without having to post money and was granted permission to travel to France in June while the case is pending.

Defense attorney Marilyn Bednarski said Lemon plans to plead not guilty and fight the charges in Minnesota.
Lemon, who was fired from CNN in 2023 following a bumpy run as a morning host, has said he has no affiliation to the organization that went into the church and he was there as a solo journalist chronicling protesters.
“Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done,” his lawyer, Abbe Lowell, said in a statement earlier Friday.
Attorney General Pam Bondi promoted the arrests on social media.

“Make no mistake. Under President Trump’s leadership and this administration, you have the right to worship freely and safely,” Bondi said in a video posted online. “And if I haven’t been clear already, if you violate that sacred right, we are coming after you.”
Indictment describes Lemon’s livestream
Since he left CNN, Lemon has joined the legion of journalists who have gone into business for themselves. He posts regularly on YouTube and has not hidden his disdain for Trump.
Yet during his online show from the church, he stressed: “I’m not here as an activist. I’m here as a journalist.” He described the scene before him and interviewed churchgoers and demonstrators.
The indictment names nine defendants including Lemon. It says two of them posted their planned action on social media the day before and gave the others instructions in a shopping center parking lot the following morning.

Lemon started livestreaming and told the audience he was with a group gearing up for a “resistance” operation against federal immigration policies, according to the document. Lemon “took steps to maintain operational secrecy by reminding co-conspirators to not disclose the target of their operation,” the indictment says, and stepped away so his microphone would not accidentally divulge the planning.
During the briefing before the operation, prosecutors say, Lemon thanked an activist who is among the nine indicted for what she was doing and assured her he was not saying what was going on.
Inside the church the defendants shouted slogans and blew whistles after the pastor was about to begin the sermon and gestured in a hostile and aggressive manner, according to prosecutors, and the pastor and congregants perceived “threats of violence.”
Lemon told the livestream he saw a young man who was frightened, sad and crying and it was understandable because the experience was traumatic and uncomfortable, the indictment says. The defendants then surrounded the pastor and Lemon “peppered him with questions to promote the operation’s message.”

‘Keep trying’
Last week a magistrate judge rejected prosecutors’ initial bid to charge Lemon. Shortly afterward he predicted on his show that the administration would try again.
“And guess what,” Lemon said. “Here I am. Keep trying. That’s not going to stop me from being a journalist. That’s not going to diminish my voice. Go ahead, make me into the new Jimmy Kimmel if you want. Just do it. Because I’m not going anywhere.”
Independent journalist Georgia Fort livestreamed the moments before her arrest, telling viewers that agents were at her door and her First Amendment right as a journalist was being diminished.
A judge released Fort, Trahern Crews and Jamael Lundy on bond, rejecting the Justice Department’s attempt to keep them in custody. Not guilty pleas were entered. Fort’s supporters in the courtroom clapped and whooped.

“It’s a sinister turn of events in this country,” Fort’s attorney, Kevin Riach, said in court.
Discouraging scrutiny
Jane Kirtley, a media law and ethics expert at the University of Minnesota, said the federal laws cited by the government were not intended to apply to reporters gathering news.
The charges against Lemon and Fort, she said, are “pure intimidation and government overreach.”
Some experts and activists said the charges are not only an attack on press freedoms but also a strike against Black Americans who count on Black journalists to bear witness to injustice and oppression.

The National Association of Black Journalists said it was “outraged and deeply alarmed” and warned of an effort to “criminalize and threaten press freedom under the guise of law enforcement.”
Crews is a leader of Black Lives Matter Minnesota who has led many protests and actions for racial justice, particularly following George Floyd’s killing in Minneapolis in 2020.
“All the greats have been to jail, MLK, Malcom X — people who stood up for justice get attacked,” Crews told The Associated Press. “We were just practicing our First Amendment rights.”
Church leaders praise arrests in protest
A prominent civil rights attorney and two other people involved in the protest were arrested last week. Prosecutors have accused them of civil rights violations for disrupting the Cities Church service.

The Justice Department launched an investigation after the group interrupted services by chanting “ICE out” and “Justice for Renee Good,” referring to the 37-year-old mother of three who was fatally shot by an ICE officer in Minneapolis.
Cities Church belongs to the Southern Baptist Convention and lists one of its pastors as David Easterwood, who leads ICE’s St. Paul field office.
“We are grateful that the Department of Justice acted swiftly to protect Cities Church so that we can continue to faithfully live out the church’s mission to worship Jesus and make him known,” lead pastor Jonathan Parnell said.

Horner, who joined the team in 2005, led Red Bull to eight drivers’ championships and six constructors’ championship titles.
He was dismissed after a controversial 18 months that started when a female employee accused him of sexual harassment, an allegation that was made public in February 2024.
The Briton left with a £52m payout but he said he felt a “real sense of loss”, and blamed Red Bull managing director Oliver Mintzlaff and Red Bull advisor Marko Helmut for his exit.

“It was all rather sudden. I didn’t really get the chance to say a proper goodbye,” he said.
“I think this was a decision that was made by Oliver Mintzlaff with Helmut advising from the side-line.
“I think ultimately things changed within the business, within the group. The founder died, and after Dietrich [Mateschitz]’s death, I think probably I was deemed to have maybe too much control.”
Watching President Zelenskyy and first lady Olena Zelenska in the centre of Kyiv lead a minute’s silence to honour the tens of thousands of soldiers who have died on the fourth anniversary of the Ukraine war was a sobering moment.
European prime ministers and dignitaries had come to Maidan Square in Kyiv as an act of solidarity and remembrance as they set candles in front of the sea of crosses, photos and flags that now adorn this makeshift memorial for those killed in this conflict.
But equally, there is an acknowledgement from those gathered that when it comes to this war, there is no end in sight: the leaders who arrived in Ukraine to mark this anniversary expect to be coming back next year, too.
For Yvette Cooper, the foreign secretary, the trip was a moment to focus not just on sanctions, weapon supplies and territory, but to try to highlight the war Vladimir Putin is waging against women and children in Ukraine as he wages a “war on Ukrainian culture”.

“I think one of the things that’s been clearly happening, the way that so many children have been stolen, the ways in which, in the temporarily occupied territories, they are trying to change the education system, trying to choke out the Ukrainian language,” she said.
“It’s an attempt really, not just about territory, but to have a war on Ukrainian families, to have war on Ukraine history and culture and identity,” the foreign secretary told me in an interview in Kyiv.

But even as she arrived in Ukraine, issues at home plaguing the government and her foreign office brief were dominating the agenda, with the former US ambassador that she sacked, Peter Mandelson, arrested and taken in for hours of questioning by the police as Ms Cooper took an overnight train to Ukraine.
The foreign secretary, who sacked the ambassador just days into her job in September, reiterated her position that Lord Mandelson “should never have been appointed” and, in a rare flash of emotion, told me that “vile” emails were exchanged between Lord Mandelson and paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

In one of the emails released by the US Department of Justice, Epstein replies to Lord Mandelson asking how being free from jail felt, by saying “she feels fresh, firm and creamy”. Lord Mandelson replied by calling Epstein a “naughty boy”.
“That’s just vile,” she told me. “It makes me feel so angry.”
“I’ve been really clear, Peter Mandelson should never have been appointed as ambassador to the US and I think some of what has been so, so deeply frustrating about all of this is that really at the heart of all of these should be the victims of Epstein, they’re women and and children who faced the most horrendous criminal exploitation trafficking and that really should be the focus.
“As you know, when I was home secretary, I made it a mission for the government to halve violence against women and girls over the next 10 years.
Advertisement
“That’s a strategy now that the prime minister has championed. And now, as foreign secretary, I am making tackling violence against women and girls something that is an international theme for us as well.”

Beth says she’s never seen the foreign secretary so furious.
On that issue, Ms Cooper used her time in Ukraine to meet female victims of Russian aggression and sexual violence and the “voices for children” charity with Olena Zelenska to highlight the plight of thousands of children stolen from their Ukrainian families by Russia.
Yevgen Zakharov, a civil rights activist working at the Civil Liberties Centre, told the foreign secretary on her visit there that Putin “wants to eliminate Ukrainian identity”.
Advertisement
“This is his crazy idea, a genocidal intent is there,” he said.
Throughout these visits, we heard stories of women in Russian-occupied territory being beaten, sexually abused, falsely imprisoned and sent to Labour camps.
Elena Jagapova spoke of how she was taped to a chair, beaten until bloodied, sexually abused and sent to a labour camp. Another, Julia, told us of how her children – then 10 and 17 – were abducted by the Russians, and her 19-month battle to get them back.
Ms Zelenska says more than 20,000 Ukrainian children have been stolen by the Russians as part of their campaign to eradicate Ukrainian culture, through repressing the language, forcing indoctrination and trying to brainwash children.

“We heard stories not just of torture, but also of this attempt to really destroy Ukrainian culture and identity as well,” said Ms Cooper.
“That’s why it’s so important that we provide support for Ukrainian families, support for Ukrainian services but, also, make sure that you could have the kind of special tribunal, the kind of court processes, international court processes, that can pursue exactly those questions and can make sure that there is some justice and accountability.”

The UK has made it clear to Ukraine that it will play a part in helping set up war crime courts when this conflict finally ends, in echoes of Britain’s role in the Nuremberg trials that punctuated the Second World War.
But when that moment comes is hard to see. Those who gathered in Ukraine on Tuesday did so with a weariness that has come to characterise an attritional war in which Russia isn’t winning, but neither is it defeated, as Europe and the US give enough support for Ukraine to fight on, without the firepower – or sanctions against Russia – for it to truly succeed.
Mr Zelenskyy warned on the eve of the fourth anniversary that Putin had already started World War Three and Ukraine was the outpost, the frontline pushing Putin back.

Ms Cooper doesn’t want to use that language, but she does acknowledge that Russian aggression is here to stay, and allies must support Ukraine for however long it takes.
To that end, the UK introduced another sanctions package on Tuesday, and is pushing the US and Europe about a maritime services ban to make it much harder for Russia’s shadow fleet to transport Russian oil.
The frustration is that the US, in trying to pursue peace talks – and reportedly in favour of Russian demand that Ukraine cede the 20% of the Donbas territory not under Russian occupation as part of any truce, is reluctant to squeeze Russia economically right now.
So this war grinds on. For the Ukrainians and allies, one glimmer of hope is that Russia is now losing more men that it can mobilise on the battlefield.
Ukraine hopes that if it can increase the casualty rate to 50,000 Russians a month, then Putin might be forced to consider conscription, which could prove politically difficult and begin to stall his momentum.
That Russia has sacrificed an estimated 500,000 lives in order to gain less than one per cent of Ukraine’s territory tells of the attritional war in which these two sides are locked – and with the horrific loss of life.

In the meantime, Britain and Europe will try to put more pressure on the US to bring in more aggressive sanctions against Russia, to financially starve Putin’s war machine.
But for all the signs of solidarity on Tuesday, there is little to show in the way of concrete steps to peace. Ukraine hopes for a game changer in the coming months, but is reconciled to more anniversaries like today.
Princess and Junior Andre have reportedly signed up for the BBC’s Celebrity Race Across The World following the success of their ITV2 reality show
Monde Mwitumwa TV and Celebrity Reporter
22:54, 24 Feb 2026
Princess and Junior Andre are reportedly set to participate in the upcoming series of Celebrity Race Across The World. Insiders suggest that the siblings, children of former glamour model Katie Price and singer Peter Andre, have already embarked on their international journey to commence filming for the BBC show.
It’s believed that Princess, 18, and Junior, 20, were enlisted by producers following the success of their ITV2 reality programme The Princess Diaries. The reality series, which documents the influencer navigating life under public scrutiny, was the channel’s most successful launch of 2025 outside of Love Island and Big Brother, and is due to return for a second series next month.

Celebrity Race Across The World features four renowned duos competing across a region of the world to reach a destination using any means of transport other than aeroplanes. The previous series saw Roman Kemp and his sister Harleymoon declared winners after a 3,700-mile race through Central America.
A source disclosed to The Sun regarding the show’s new recruits: “Princess and Junior have proven themselves to be well-mannered, hardworking kids and opportunities continue to come their way. Execs were impressed with the ratings for The Princess Diaries but also how they came across.
“They’re brilliant signings for Celeb Race as they bring with them a younger audience. But bosses are also looking forward to seeing how they cope with the stripped-back style of travelling as they’re more at home in five-star hotels than a hostel.”, reports the Mirror.
Representatives for Princess and Junior Andre declined to comment, and the BBC has been approached by Wales Online for a response.
This follows the siblings breaking their silence after their mother Katie’s whirlwind marriage to her fourth husband, Lee Andrews.
Newly released records appear to confirm that the couple officially finalised the legal registration of their marriage on 17 February. During a recent appearance on This Morning, Princess and Junior discussed their mum’s latest wedding.

Princess revealed she hasn’t yet met Lee, with Junior adding that they are “happy as long as she’s happy”.
At the time, Princess stated: “I’ve not met him.” Junior quickly chimed in, with Princess agreeing: “Our mum is her own person, she’s her own woman, she’s going to do what she’s going to do and at the end of the day, we’re supportive of her as long as she’s happy.
“As long as she’s happy that’s all I care about,” Junior continued, with Princess adding: “If she’s happy, we’re happy.”

Signs have been added to the car parks of the stores which are taking part in the supermarket’s small trial, and they tell drivers not to park in parent and child car parking bays if they don’t have any children with them.
The notices at Tesco warn shoppers that anyone who is seen to abuse the spaces and what they’re intended for will face a parking charge.
Tesco told Newsquest the signage also applies to disabled parking bays with customers being reminded to display their Blue Badges when using them.

Should fines be imposed for incorrect use of parent and child parking bays in supermarkets?
In our original article explaining that Tesco shoppers had spotted the notices, we included a poll, asking Newsquest readers if they would like to see the fines introduced in more supermarkets.
We asked ‘Should all supermarkets introduce a parking fine for incorrect use of designated spaces?’ and a huge 80% of the 1,291 readers who answered voted in favour of it.
Meanwhile, 18% said they wouldn’t like to see the fines introduced at other UK supermarkets.
A further 2% replied that they weren’t sure and sit on the fence when it comes to this discussion.
UK high street shops that no longer exist
On Instagram, Netmums shared pictures of the new signs that have started to appear in some Tesco car parks and it led to a large discussion.

One person said: “This is a good start, every single time I go with my toddler there’s always a single man parked up and getting out with no child.
“The amount of abuse I’ve received when saying something to them is horrifying too so fine away!”

Someone else said: “My local Tesco has introduced this and im here for it! Just curious about how its going to be monitored”.

This person shared: “YES!!! I can’t stand people who use them without young children. Drives me insane!”
Others suggested the warning needed to be clearer, with one saying: “This needs to include pregnant women!”
Another shared: “What age is classified as children”.

She was last seen near the Old Anchor pub in Sutton
Police continue to search for a woman who has not been seen in nine days. Carol Hillier, 64, was last seen near Sutton in East Cambridgeshire.
Advertisement
Carol, from Sandy, in Bedfordshire, was spotted at around 11:20am on Sunday, February 15. She was seen near the Old Anchor pub, off Bury Lane, Sutton, near Ely.
She has been described as white 5’4, of medium build with chin length, mousy grey hair, and grey/blue eyes. She wears glasses and was last seen wearing a dark plum coloured Rohan coat, pale blue beanie hat, dark walking trousers, and carrying a small rucksack.
A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire Police confirmed on Tuesday (February 24) that Carol has not yet been found.
Anyone who has seen Carol on or since Sunday, or has footage of her should contact the police through the force website quoting reference 233 of February 15.
Brook has always been one of Bazball’s most devoted believers.
McCullum is the only Test coach Brook has had, the only permanent coach he has worked under as white-ball captain. He often speaks straight from the McCullum philosophical handbook.
It was no surprise, therefore, that he credited his coach with the plan to promote Brook from number five to bat at three for the first time in his international career.
It was McCullum who put the idea to his captain early on Tuesday morning, less than 12 hours before the start of the game.
Advertisement
Some England players, like Jacob Bethell, who was nudged down to number four by Brook’s promotion, were told earlier in the day, but the rest were not fully made aware of the plan until McCullum spoke in the pre-match huddle.
“Baz was the mastermind there,” Brook said.
“He had the discussion with me this morning about going up the order and trying to maximise the powerplay.”
McCullum’s move means England now have a free hit in their final Super 8 match against New Zealand on Friday. After that they will travel to India for a semi-final.
Advertisement
Somehow, after stuttering and struggling to this point, they are the closest side to winning the title. Australia have gone already and defending champions India could follow before the week is out.
If the co-hosts remain, one of South Africa or West Indies will surely be knocked out.
Brook is two wins from becoming the fourth England men’s captain – after Paul Collingwood, Eoin Morgan and Jos Buttler – to lift a World Cup.
He is leading his way, which will bring moments that will leave you scratching your head. Now is the time for Brook to be backed, however.

He is not only a captain, one sharp tactically on the field and supremely talented with the bat, but a leader.
The hospitals are trying to minimise impact to anyone affected.
Cambridgeshire hospitals have said they will need to postpone some operations due to a shortage of supplies. There is a “global shortage” of bone cement used for joint replacements such as knees and hips.
Advertisement
As a result, hospitals under the Cambridge University Hospitals Trust (CUH) – including Addenbrooke’s Hospital – and Peterborough City Hospital have had to postpone some upcoming operations.
The CUH website said: “One of the major international manufacturers temporarily paused production following a packaging fault. Although production has now restarted, supplies remain limited across the UK and are expected to be affected over the coming weeks.
“This national issue is being coordinated by NHS England, and like other NHS trusts, CUH has put immediate measures in place to ensure patient safety and continuity of urgent care. We recognise how frustrating and disappointing this disruption may feel, particularly if you are currently waiting for surgery.
“Like other NHS trusts, we are prioritising our use of bone cement to treat patients with the greatest clinical need. Unfortunately, some planned joint replacement surgeries or procedures will need to be postponed.”

A Peterborough City Hospital spokesperson said the hospital is trying to keep the impact to a “minimum”.
They added: “We are doing all we can to keep the impact of this issue to a minimum, but we will need to postpone some planned surgery over the coming weeks. We recognise how frustrating and disappointing this will be for patients who will have already waited a long time for their procedure.”
The pub will replaced with a restaurant, which will be the first of its kind in Cambridgeshire.
A Cambridgeshire pub is set to close soon, with a new restaurant replacing it. In November, it was announced that Mulberry Tree Farm in Hampton, Peterborough, would be closing.

The pub has served Hampton for more than 10 years, and it has been popular for its large cake slices it serves. In its place, Hickory’s Smokehouse will open as the first of its kind in Cambridgeshire, creating around 100 new jobs.
The closing date of Mulberry Tree has now been confirmed as Saturday, February 28. In a social media post, a Mulberry Tree spokesperson said: “Mulberry Tree Farm as you know it will be closing our doors on February 28, but if you haven’t already heard, there’s exciting news ahead!
“Hickory’s Smokehouse will be opening later this year, so keep your eyes peeled! Thank you to everyone who’s visited Mulberry Tree Farm over the years, and we hope to see you again soon as Hickory’s.”
The opening date for Hickory’s has not yet been announced. Hickory’s Smokehouse has been approached for more information.

Morrisons introduces ATM charges at select UK stores
Dunelm isn’t the only major UK shop that has announced a new change affecting shoppers this week.
Morrisons has also confirmed it will now be charging its customers who use ATMs at a handful of its Daily convenience stores, as part of a new pay-to-use trial.
Using ATMs at Morrisons Daily shops used to be free, but the use of cash machines has dropped significantly due to an increase in cashless payments.

As a result, Morrisons is looking for ways to keep an ATM service for consumers.
Recommended reading:
Morrisons said the change will allow customers to continue withdrawing cash at their local Daily site rather than losing the ATM service entirely.
Pricing decisions for ATMs are not controlled by Morrisons as they are operated by external providers.
